Draft Investigatory Powers Bill

Proceeding contribution from Andy Slaughter (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 4 November 2015. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Draft Investigatory Powers Bill.

As the Home Secretary has acknowledged, David Anderson called for prior judicial authorisation. He also said that the new law should comply with international human rights standards. Given the uncertainty over the future of the Human Rights Act, will the Home Secretary confirm that the Bill will comply with that Act, and with the European convention on human rights?
